The green village, the colored city, the ever familiar locality
Each path, tree, house, turn, each native I have left behind

The green crops fields, green hills, fruit...

Dried out, crushed to bitter pulp, I am bleached
Of his nature, his image sin digest
Till I am a chemical drip, a leached
Embodiment of human reason, just
Paper without special...

I Almost
I ALMOST –IT’S JUST ALMOST

Friends and families framed in my fairytales-hiding my fears
Scared to show the true colors-waiting to be validated and valued by vanity
Lost love, rooted in rooms with...

A potter went down to the edge of the water
To ask of an otter a gift for his daughter.
Go ask the weasel; he paints at his easel.
His fees will be low; his currency’s diesel.

have you ever heard the devil whisper in your ear?
the acrimonious voice instilling guilt and fear

a satanic chauvinist who cherry picks your thoughts 
as you abdicate morality for something you should not

Then fight against the misty haze
But fearless as the jackal hound

You know something is wrong and has been for a while.
Surreptitiously working its way into your mind.
